Heavy K - 1950 (Album)

South African music fans know Afro House superstar, Heavy K,not just for his musical prowess but for his infectious humility.

This exceptional fan-favourite is one act who goes over and beyond to please his fans and he’s set to do it again with the massively anticipated 1950 album which drops soon.

The Drumboss is still basking in all the glory he’s enjoyed this year with such massive hit songs as Wenza Njalo and Ziyamporoma, which featured Thulasizwe.

However, The 1950 album is sure a way for Heavy K to complete his very successful year, 2016 with a smash. Who would even doubt this fact when he doesn’t disappoint with such feel-good pieces of musical art.

The album is specially dedicated to Heavy-k’s late mother “Thobeka Joyce Siqula” where he pays a warm tribute to her, showing how much he missed her and how stronger he found himself in the middle of a lost journey.

I miss you mama, i dedicate 1950 to you. Your passing has had me weak and left me in the middle of nowhere and in the middle of nowhere is where I found you residing within me and teaching me that the fear about losing a loved one is the fear of change itself. Being used to one person, day after day, then to one day wake up all alone, a whole new day. I think of a as a chance to start over, to learn from the past and make a brand new beginning. I will get up and face anything because I know you are with me and within me.

1950-2015

RIP Thobeka Joyce Siqula

Heavy K packs everything right with his musical craft. In fact, music fans cannot stop talking about the talented OG and his 2015 album release which he titled Respect The Drumboss. One of our favourite joints off that project was the superstar feature of Nigerian act, Burna Boy titled Therapy.
